Recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) is a synthesized hormone used by many dairy farmers to get higher levels of milk production from their cows. Its use is banned in the European Union and Canada, but is still allowed in the United States. It works by mimicking a hormone in the cow's body known as bovine somatotropin, which stimulates the production of milk by raising the levels of another hormone known as insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1).
Unfortunately, along with the increase in milk production come a number of detrimental effects to both the cow and the people who drink the milk that comes from them. The cows develop a number of problems, including drastically increased rates of mastitis, which is a bacterial infection of the udder. This infection leads to blood and pus secretions into milk. Mastitis leads to the increase in antibiotic treatment, which can seep into cow's milk and be ingested by consumers.
Of additional concern is that IGF-1 levels of milk from rBGH-treated cows are higher. IGF-1 contributes to rapid cell growth. Thus, if its levels are higher in milk it may contribute to development of cancer in those who consume the milk. Some studies have indicated that people who drink milk from rBGH-treated cows have 10% higher levels of IGF-1 in their blood. Serum IGF-1 levels have been associated with a number of cancers, including colon, prostate, and breast cancer. IGF-1 may contribute to the formation of new tumors, or may help to feed a tumor and cause it to grow more rapidly. A 20-year study published in 1997 found an association between IGF-1 levels and breast cancer.
Cow's milk from cows treated with rBGH may pose risks to both the cows and the people who drink their milk. Thus, until it is clear what the results of drinking rBGH-treated milk are fuly known, it might be in the best interest to avoid rBGH-treated milk.
